Write to Know: Nonfiction Writing Prompts for Secondary Biology
PRODUCT DETAILS
Ready-to-use nonfiction writing prompts for biology with classroom implementation ideas and scoring guides. Writing is a cognitive process that allows students to “show what they know,” which not only aids teachers in assessing students, but also helps them plan appropriate instructional strategies that will most benefit each student. Nonfiction writing will help students score higher on tests, but more importantly, will prepare them for life! Prompts are research-based, ready to use, and aligned to curriculums. The value of nonfiction writing lies not only in writing, but also in editing and rewriting. Research overwhelmingly indicates that nonfiction writing with feedback and revision leads to higher student achievement in all content areas. These prompts can be used immediately in the classroom with students. Scoring guides, or rubrics, are included, which may be modified to align with your state or district needs. 128 pages. Grades 8-12.
